Journalist Fiona Phillips is on a mission to find out the truth behind the recent headlines on sugar. Is this household ingredient really a serious health risk? With the help of four volunteers from Newcastle, Fiona will be discovering what sugar really does to our bodies and what the health benefits of cutting back actually are.

On her journey Fiona also finds out why reducing your sugar intake is trickier than it seems. We have evolved to crave sugar and other high calorie foods as a survival technique; in this programme Fiona discovers what sugar cravings really are. She also finds out why sugar is being added to many supermarket favourites that we would think of as purely savoury.

Will Fiona’s brave volunteers manage to cut back their sugar intake by an astonishing 80% - the percentage some will need to achieve to meet new recommended levels. Fascinating science and human drama combine as the truth about sugar turns out to be more surprising than Fiona could ever have imagined.
